Diet and Health
S Uncover food patterns associated with increased and reduced
incidence of disease, their biomarkers (e.g., body weight), and/or
their internal regulators (e.g., gene expression).
S Using:
1.
2.
Food Frequency Questionnaires (FFQs); and
Diet pattern analysis using Principal Component Analysis (PCA).
Dietary Analysis
S FFQs are questionnaires used to determine the food and
beverages, and their quantities, consumed by an individual;
S For the NutriGen study, FFQs from each of the four cohorts
(ABC, CHILD, FAMILY, and START) have been processed.

Dietary Pattern Analysis
1.
Standardize CHILD food portions to that of the SHARE FFQ.
•
e.g., ½ cup versus 1 cup servings, change from 2/week to 1/week

Standardize CHILD food portions to that of the SHARE FFQ.
•
2.
e.g., ½ cup versus 1 cup servings, change from 2/week to 1/week
Create standard food groups to reduce number of variables and ease
interpretation of dietary patterns
•
e.g., canned meat lunch meat, breakfast sausages => processed meat

indicators (e.g., FPG, HOMA-IR, CRP, cholesterol and TG).

Dietary Pattern Analysis
S Principal Component Analysis (PCA)
S Reduces complex data into fewer dimensions
S Are there underlying patterns that distinguish groups of individuals?
S
e.g., dietary pattern
S Performed in R, using ‘psych’ package
S To uncover that we need to consider three PCA parameters:
1.
Number of dimensions/factors (i.e., number of diet patterns)
2.
Rotation method (i.e., diet patterns)
3.
Loading scores (i.e., foods within each diet)
Dietary Analysis
1. Number of Dimensions
S Scree plot (“breakpoint” or
“breakpoint” -1)
S Arbitrary cutoff (e.g.,
eigenvalue of 1.0)
Dietary Analysis
2. Rotation Method
S Groups the data in a specified manner, that best tells the story
S Oblique - assume that the variables are correlated
S Orthogonal - assume that the variables in the analysis are
uncorrelated
S Multiple choices but ‘varimax’ is most common dietary analysis
S
Aims to load food strongly in one dimension only.
Dietary Analysis
3. Loading Scores
S How strongly a specific food item/group contributes to a
dimension/dietary pattern
S Typical cutoff range from 0.20-0.30.
S In this case, 0.30 was used as the cutoff as it provided a clear
contrast between dietary patterns (e.g., prudent and Western)
ABC
Western: Red meats, processed meats,
fried foods, refined grains, snacks,
pasta, pizza, french fries, sweets and
condiments.
Prudent: Red meats, seafood, non-red
meats, legumes, leafy greens, fruit and
vegetables.
CHILD
Prudent: Non-red meats, legumes,
leafy greens, fruit, vegetables, nonmeat dishes.
Western: Fats, processed meats, fried
foods, refined grains, , pasta, pizza,
french fries, snacks, sweets and
condiments.
FAMILY
Prudent: Fermented dairy, non-red
meats, legumes, leafy greens, fruit,
vegetables, whole grains, non-meat
dishes.
Western: Fats, red-meat, processed
meats, fried foods, refined grains,
pasta, pizza, french fries, snacks,
sweets and condiments.
START
Prudent: Low-fat dairy, fermented
dairy, legumes, fruit, vegetables, nonmeat dishes.
Western: Full fat dairy, red-meat,
processed meats, fried foods, refined
grains, snacks, sweets and
condiments.
NutriGen
Prudent: Fermented dairy, legumes,
fruit, vegetables, non-meat dishes.
Western: Full-fat dairy, red-meat,
processed meats, starchy vegetables,
refined grains, pasta, pizza, french
fries, snacks, sweets and condiments.
Pollo-pescetarian: Eggs, fish, poultry,
leafy greens, fruit, vegetables, stir-fried
dishes, nuts and seeds.
Next Steps
S Compare loading scores to maternal outcomes such as GWG,
GDM status, FPG, and AUC glucose.
S If associations uncovered, does the diet also contribute to the
health of the offspring.
